^ Carnegie Steel Company did not build the firs ^ 
steel oil derricks. It did, however, commence 
their manufacture in 1903, and has continued to 
manufacture since that date. It did build th(‘ 
first complete all steel drilling rig in 1907. Sinc (5 
that date it has remained the sole manufacture:’ 
continuously engaged in the application of steel 
to the construction of complete drilling rigs for 
use in the sinking of wells for oil and gas by either th^ 
cable tool or the rotary methods. 


Its engineers have studied the use of drilling equipment 
under both of these methods in the various fields of th(i 
United States, and on the basis of that careful study have 
made constant improvements which were incorporated ii^ 
manufacture just as rapidly as they were demonstrated b^ 
field experience to be really adapted to requirements of 
drillers and operators. 


Deriicks and drilling rigs purchased from this Company 
will include all the improvements it is able to make to th(3 
date of the order, and constructive criticism of drillers, 
operators and owners will be appreciated and utilized 
wherever pos,sible. 


Carnegie Steel Company builds for specified service. Whilfe 
this pamphlet contains descriptions of derricks and rigs for deei) 
well drilling, pumping, etc., it cannot cover fully all the special 
equipment the Company has made. If the equipment describel 
in the pamphlet does not suit satisfactorily any intended service, 
write its nearest district office full particulars as to loads, drilling 
methods and conditions and ask for designs and specifications t 
cover the requirements.

CARNEGfE STEEL COMPANY 


MATERIAL : The best material for the construction of 
derricks and drilling rigs is structural steel. It is a homo¬ 
geneous material without knots, or pitch pockets, or pitch 
streaks, or ring shakes, rot or dote, without sap wood or 
like defects, and available in the very kind of shapes which 
are best fitted to resist the different kinds of stresses due 
to drilling loads. 

As to quality, the steel is rolled to the specifications 
of the American Society for Testing Materials, Class A-9-16, 
entitled Structural Steel for Buildings. 

The legs and braces of derricks are made of angles; 
crown blocks of beams and channels; machinery supports 
of beams, channels, angles, plates, steel cross tie sections, 
etc.; bull wheels of pipe, channels, angles, plates, etc. In 
each place that section is used which experience indicates 
to be most economical and best fitted for the particular 
g'ervice it has to perform. 

METHODS OF DESIGN : The loads which come on 
derricks and drilling rigs are problematical and cannot be 
exactly ascertained. The tables indicate what the safe 
loads should be, figured on the factor of safety of four which 
is usual in the fabrication of steel for buildings. The yield 
point of structural steel is rather more than twice as high 
as the working unit stresses. 

Consequently, the derricks will sustain safely infre¬ 
quent stresses of higher amount than is set down in the 
tables. Care should, however, be taken not to load drilling 
structures beyond the tabular safe loads. 

No guy lines or other extraneous means of support are 
necessary. All stresses have been taken care of within 
the structures. Wind stresses have been figured at 30 
pounds per square foot of exposed surface, which is equiva¬ 
lent to the pressure developed by a storm of about 70 
miles per hour velocity. 

Size of Members: Gusset plates, diagonal braces and 
other small members have a minimum thickness of . 





METHODS OF DESIGN 


Plates and angles used for braces and for details of mach¬ 
inery supports are thick, except where increased 

thickness is necessary to provide proper bearing for shafts. 
Braces and girts which sustain little more than wind 
stresses are made of the same size, panel by panel, in the 
various classes of derricks manufactured, but the size of 
angles in the legs and their thickness are made to conform 
to the computed requirements of the loading. 

The steel mills roll angles to wide ranges in sizes and 
thicknesses. Consequently, it is a simple matter to provide 
additional strength in the leg sections when required with¬ 
out change in the over-all dimensions. This principle of 
flexibility enables the makers to meet specified loading 
conditions with the least possible expense over established 
standard sizes. In this respect structural steel is beyond 
comparison with other materials; it affords the very closest 
approximation to loading conditions. 

TYPES OF DRILLING RIGS : Five distinct classes of 
drilling rigs are now manufactured by this Company: 

1. The Standard Drilling Rig for cable tool drilling : This 
consists of standard derrick, two-pulley crown block, bull wheel posts, 
bull wheel, machinery supports, walking beam, band wheel and sand 
reel. This type of structure is used for the simplest cable tool work. 

2. The California Rig for cable tool drilling : This consists 
of California derrick with four or six-pulley crown block, bull and calf 
wheel posts, bull and calf wheels, machinery supports, walking beam, 
band wheel and sand reel. This type of structure is used in cable 
tool drilling where a supplementary wheel is required continuously 
to handle casing lines. 

3. The Rotary Rig for rotary drilling: This consists of 
rotary derrick with five-pulley crown block and draw works posts, but 
without bull wheel, band wheel, calf wheel, sand reel or other mechan¬ 
ism used in cable tool work. This type of structure is used only for 
the simplest pure rotary work. 

4. The Standard Combination Rig: This consists of standard 
combination derrick with six-pulley crown block, bull wheel and draw 
works posts, bull wheel, machinery supports, walking beam, band 
wheel and sand reel. This type of structure is used for drilling wells 


5 



CARNEGIE STEEL COMPANY 


with the rotary to be followed subsequently by cable tools for drillin 5 
or cleaning. 

5. The California Combination Rig : This consists of Cali¬ 
fornia combination derrick with six or seven-pulley crown block, bull 
wheel, calf wheel and draw works posts, bull wheel and calf whee 
machinery supports and walking beam, band wheel and sand ree. 
This is the complete interchangeable combination rig suited for use 
with both cable and rotary tool drilling where supplementary ca f 
wheel is necessary continuously to handle casing lines. 

As auxiliary to the drilling mechanism proper, complet 3 
rigs of all classes are furnished with engine Idocks, hous3 
framing over derrick and machinery supports, belt and 
engine houses and with corrugated steel covering. Sales 
are made of complete drilling rigs or any parts thereof at 
purchaser’s option. 

These rigs possess within themselves all the elements 
of simplicity which are to be found in the wooden structures 
after which they are modelled with the added features cf 
portability, fireproof character, low wind resistance, ease 
of erection, smoothness of operation, possibility of re-use 
and long endurance. 

Derrick Joints : In the construction of derricks twD 
types of joints are in use: the Woodworth and the Yorko, 
each of which has its respective advantages, and the 
typical arrangement of which is shown in Fig. 1. Wooc - 
worth derricks are put together with bolts which must be 
put in and taken out in the process of erection and remova , 
whereas in Yorke derricks the bolts on removal are simply 
loosened and remain in place. The number of bolts £,t 
each joint in the two types of derricks of the same size and 
grade are the same. Yoike derricks depend on the fiic- 
tional resistance at the joints which maj^ be a maximum c^r 
a minimum, dependent upon the care with which the bolus 
are tightened. Woodworth derricks depend on the same 
resistance, plus the full shearing value of the bolts. 

As a rule, drilling loads are compressive and are trans¬ 
mitted from panel to panel by direct liearing on metal.

Fio. 1. Details of Typical Joints 

The function of the bolts is mostly to hold the member 
in line and to prevent distortion of the structuie, althougli 
occasionally the full strength of a joint may be required 
to resist unequal stresses induced by pulling casing. 
Woodworth derricks are, therefore, recommended for sever 3 
drilling conditions and handling heavy lines of casing. 

Yorke joints can be used with any regular-size derricks 
made of 4" x 4" angles, but not on derricks with 6" x 6 '' 
angle legs, such as the 80-foot Heavy California, lOG-foot 
Heavy Rotary and combinations thereof. Splices for 
these derricks must be made Avith plates rather than wit 1 
square root angles such as are used with 4" x 4'' angle legs, 
as the mills do not roll square root angles of sufficient size 
properly to splice such large size members. No turnbuckles 
or clevises are used on any type of derrick, for drilling o 
and gas wells, manufactured by this Company. Girts an 
braces are cut and punched accurately to template an 
alignment in the finished structure is perfect wfithodt 
further adjustment. 

Some drillers may fear that the bolts used in all th 
derricks may Avork loose and that, therefore, nut lock

CARNEGIE STEEL COMPANY 


should be placed on them. That does not happen if the 
bolts have been properly tightened in the erection. The 
film of rust which forms on exposure to the weather soon 
stops all that. Years of expeiience indicate that the 
simplest use of machine bolts fills the bill. 

Heights of Derricks : Standard sizes of derricks are 
shown in the pages which follow. The heights are measured 
from top of sills to underneath side of crown blocks. The 
height of the bottom panel in most cases has been placed at 
12 feet, and that of the second panel at 8 feet or 20 feet 
from top of sills to the second girt. This provides ample 
space for movement of walking beam, removal of tools, etc. 
The panels above the second girt are made of such a height 
as to permit erection from planks placed across the corners. 

With the exception of the light 59-foot pumper, the 
legs of all these derricks are made in single panel lengths 
so as to permit the readiest erection with the lightest 
possilde weight in each piece.

TYPES OF DERRICKS 


Tool Windows: To facilitate handling augui^ stems, the 
third and fourth panels on one side of the Standard and 
California derricks are made with the braces of double¬ 
panel length. These double-panel braces may be used on 
any side of a derrick except the ladder side, but are usually 
placed on the bull wheel side as shown. Rotary derricks 
are fitted with a deep ‘‘V’’ extending from the sills to the 
third girt. 

Stock Sizes : Under normal conditions 72 and 80-foot 
Woodworth and Yorke standard derricks are carried in 
stock at Pittsburgh for immediate shipment', complete with 
crown blocks, ladders and bases. Regular-size derricks 
not in stock can ordinarily be fabricated promptly from 
plain material carried in stock. Complete drilling rigs are 
also carried in stock at Pittsburgh, under normal conditions, 
in the regular patterns for prompt shipment. 

Crown Blocks : Crown blocks are made of beams con¬ 
nected together with steel diaphragm separators or by pipe 
separators. Open babbitted bearings are bolted to tops 
of beams to receive the trunnions of crown pulleys, sand 
line pulleys and casing pulleys. Wood is also bolted to the 
tops of crown blocks for Standard derricks to provide proper 
points of support to the dead lines in pulling casing. It is 
also bolted to the underneath side of all beams to prevent 
drilling cables from coming in contact with sharp edges. 

Steel Tops : The steel top is made of plates and 
angles, to which crown block beams are bolted. The 
rivets used in these tops are figured to be of greater strength 
than the leg angles so that failure, if any, would take place 
in the legs of the derricks rather than in the crown block or 
the crown block supports. 

LADDERS : Ladders are made of 2" x }/i" steel bars 
except in the long bottom panels where they are 2" x 
The rungs are Ys" round rods, spaced 15" centers and have 
two nuts at each end, one on the inside and one on the 



CARNEQIE STEEL COMPANY 


outside of the steel bars. Ladders are made in two-panel 
engths, are very light and stiff and are connected to the 
girts by angles and bolts. 

DERRICK BASES : Bases of all derricks are made of 
(ihannels framed sufficiently strong to carry ordinary floor 
vorking loads. They have not been figured to be strong 
enough to support the dead weight of long strings of casing 
or drill pipes and must, therefore, have short wooden sills 
or concrete piers placed under them immediately around 
die well hole to support such weights. 

Floor joists are punched with holes to receive wooden 
nailing strips, and the wooden floor is laid on these strips 
and spiked directly thereto. The slope to the floor is made 
by raising or lowering nailing strips on the bolts. Channels 
are framed into main joists to form a footing for bull wheel 
lost braces (calf wheel post braces or draw works post 
iraces) and samson post braces. They are drilled with 
roles and framed with angle supports for brake band 
staples so that the brake band can be rigidly attached to 
die steel work. 

Trade Designations of Base Parts : Three terms are in 
sales’ use to designate parts of complete foundations: 

1. Frame Sills: The four channels on which the derrick legs 
immediately set. 

2. Derrick Base: The four frame sills with all the interior framing. 

3. House Extension : The channels and connections which support 
,he bull wheel house framing, and the sills and joists which support 
,he shop floor in a standard or California rig. The base with the 
additional outside channels is designated the Foundation: 

Frame sills or bases are furnished at customer’s option 
in orders for derricks only. Foundations must be specified 
’or complete rigs. When furnished for derricks only, 
lowever, all frame sills or bases are punched with the 
necessary holes so that later, if desired, the additional parts 
nay be secured to complete the rig without necessity for 
Lield drilling.

DERRICK BASES 


WEIGHTS OF DERRICKS AND BASES: Owing to 
differences in the rolling of structural sections, in the casting 
of bearings and in the moisture content of wood, the weight 
of complete derricks or parts may vary. The following 
;able based on .actual shipments shows, however, approxi¬ 
mate weights of standard sizes of derricks, ladders and 
crown blocks illustrated in the drawings which follow, and 
ijan be used in estimating freight rates. Weights of 
complete rigs will be found on pages 68 to 82.

DRILLING LOADS: As already noted, within reason¬ 
able thickness limits, the thickness of leg angles may be 
increased at a minimum expense and thereby additional 
strength secured. Consequently, while it is necessary to 
[imit derrick stocks to few sizes, the manufacturer offers 
Dther sizes for prompt fabrication subject to shop conditions. 
It is convenient to denominate different thicknesses of leg 
angles as grades. Table II shows the theoretical safe

loads which various grades of derricks will sustain, computed 
on the factor of safety of four as outlined in the section 
headed Methods of Design. It also gives the size and 
thickness of angles used in the top section to which the other 
panels are proportional.

The load over the crown pulley in a Standard or 
California derrick is made up of the load on the pulley, 
plus the equivalent downward pull on the drilling cable, 
and in consequence the load which a derrick will sustain 
figured on the basis of the pull on the drilling cable is to be 
taken as one-half of the tabular safe load. 

In pulling casing, however, the load is distributed to 
the crown block beams by the two or four-casing pulleys 
in a California derrick or by the parting of lines in a 
Standard derrick. While the derricks will sustain the full 


12 


















DRILLING LOADS 


theoretical safe loads ^iven, they will do so only when the 
loads are distributed by the crown block evenly to the four 
legs. It is obvious that if the entire pull in drawing casing 
comes on two legs, the derricks cannot be expected to 
stand its full theoretical load. 

When derricks are used with loads near the full allowed 
working stresses, care should always be taken to see that the loads 
are uniformly distributed.

Well No. 1 was the first well drilled in this field by the 
Preston Oil Company, and was completed January 27, 1912. The 
59-foot steel pumping derrick now over the well replaced the 80-foot 
steel drilling derrick with which the well was .sunk and which is still

STANDARD DRILLING DERRICKS : Types and sizes 
of Standard derricks shown in illustrations which follow 
conform in strength to Western Pennsylvania conditions. 
They may be made to suit other conditions by increase of 
thickness of leg sections. Leg angles are 33^" x 33^" or 
4" X 4" and all in single panel lengths. 

Crown Blocks : Two-pulley, made of two 12" beams 
with open top babbitted bearings for 43/^" shaft for 32" 
crown pulley and 2 }/^" shaft for 24" sand line pulley. 

Wooden protection strips are bolted on top and bottom 
of Standard crown blocks. Crown blocks are made in 
two types: 

1. Straight line crown blocks used in Standard steel 
drilling rigs with sand reel on the working line of the rig. 
Crown pulley and sand line pulley are carried on the same 
beams which extend beyond the line of the derrick top.

condition is held rigidly in place by the bolts. 

Sand Line Sheaves : Where sand reels are set off the 
walk, sand line sheave may be suspended immediately 
below crown block. In this case the main crown block 
l)eams are used with a special sand line sheave. Bearings 
in the swinging sheave are made of wood for 23 ^" shaft of 
the 24" sand line pulley. 

Base : Twenty feet square, made of 8" and 10" 
channels for derricks 64 feet high and under, and of 10" and 
12" channels for 72-foot and 80-foot derricks. 



Bearing 


Bull Wheel Posts : Made of channels 
framed to the I-beam girts and to 
the base channels. Bearings made 
of cast iron, babbitted, are fastened 
to the webs of the channels on their 
inside. They have a projecting boss 
against which the shoulder of the 
bull wheel gudgeon fits with proper 
clearance. Protection plates attached 
to the posts prevent the drilling 
cable from coming so far out on the 
shaft as to get entangled in the 
space between the gudgeons and the 
posts.

ROTARY DERRICKS ; Standard sizes of rotary 
derricks are 59 feet, 64 feet and 72 feet for water well drilling 
and 86 feet and 106 feet for deep oil and gas wells. 59 -foot, 
64-foot, 72-foot and 86-foot derricks are made with 20-foot 
bases, while the 106-foot derrick has a 24-foot base. The 
86-foot derrick will handle three strings of casing and the 
106-foot, four. 



Crown Blocks : Derricks for pure rotary drilling have 
five-pulley crown blocks, made in two sizes: the light block 
made with four 10" 25 pound beams connected together 
with bolts and separators for well drilling derricks (72-foot 
and under) and the regular crown block made with four 
12" 313^^ pound beams for oil and gas well drilling. The 
light blocks are arranged to take five 22" pulleys with 
234 " shafts and the regular blocks to take five 22" pulleys 
with 434" shafts. The beams are protected on the bottoms 
with wooden protection strips, just as are furnished with 
two, four and six-pulley crown blocks for Standard derricks. 
Well hole is at center of derrick. 


30 



















































































































































































ROTARY DERRICKS 



Draw Works Posts : Draw works posts, three in number, 
are made of steel H-beams and take standard rotary hoist 
bearings, same as used on wooden posts. These are 
bolted directly to the beams with long bolts passing clear 
through from one side of the post to the other. Holes are 
punched at the side of these posts to receive wooden nailing 
strips for the attachment of telegraph lines, pulleys, etc. 

When furnished with California Combination drilling 
rig, the channels in the base and the I-beam girts are 
punched with duplicate set of holes so as to receive either 
draw works posts or calf wheel posts interchangeably. 

Draw works posts can be furnished with or without 
bearings to suit any standard make of rotary hoists. Orders 
must specify kind of hoists to be used and size, also the 
diameter of drum shaft and line shaft.

COMBINATION DERRICKS : Illustrations which follow 
show only two combination derricks—an 80-foot Standard 
Combination and a 106-foot California Combination. 
Any desired combination can be built. 

These designs are based on use of one engine. Draw 
works posts are placed on walking beam side of derrick. 
In California Combination derricks this necessitates 
removal of draw works posts and their replacement by 
calf wheel posts when tools are changed. As already 
noted, bases and girts of California Combination derricks 
are punched with necessary holes so that draw works 
posts and calf wheel posts may be interchanged. Well 
hole is located l'-4" off derrick center. 

Designs are in hand for California Combination 
derricks based on use of two engines. Quotations on any 
combination may be had on application. 


Nobody now knows 
when this 40-foot all steel 
derrick [over a Carnegie 
Natural Gas Company oil 
well in Versailles Town¬ 
ship, Pa., was built. 

The rig builder has 
been acquainted with it 
for 16 years and it was 
in use before his time. 
Then it was put in the 
junk pile. This year it 
was taken out again and 
put once more into use 
and is on the job just as 
good as ever—not even 
rusted.—October, 1915. 

A well made derrick is a 
real tool.

DRILLING RIGS 


DRILLING RIGS: Drilling rigs 
described in this pamphlet have 
been tested out in use and are 
offered for sale in full confidence 
that they Avill prove eminently 
satisfactory for drilling wells for 
oil, gas, water, salt or any like 
purposes and by reason of their 
capabilities in the way of removal and re-use are far 
more economical than any other. 

The structure is made of steel with the exception of 
mud sills, wooden flooring, wood band, bull and calf wheel 
cants, wood protection pieces and wood nailing strips for 
attachment of flooring, corrugated steel, etc. 

Derricks, ladders and crown blocks used with these 
rigs are of types of construction already described. While 
it is recommended that Woodworth derricks be used in 
complete drilling rigs, parts other than derricks may be 
used with other makes of structural steel derricks or with 
pipe derricks or with wooden derricks.

BULL WHEEL : Bull wheels are made in three sizes: 

1. Deep Well Size, 8'-0" diameter, 18" pipe shaft, 

long, overall. 

2. Standard Size, 8'-0" diameter, 16" pipe shaft, 

14'-6" long, overall. 

3. Pumping Size, 7'-6" diameter, 12" pipe shaft, 

11'-0" long, overall. 

All wheels are made with channel spokes and plate 
rims. Gudgeons are cast iron, spoke pattern, inserted in 
end of shaft and shop riveted. 

Brake wheels are made with standard wooden cants, 
such as are used on wooden wheels of like diameter, placed 
within the plate rims with staggered joints and secured 
by bolts. Tug rims are double tug and made of standard 
hemlock cants or rolled metal. Turning pins are hickory, 
driven into the wooden cants or, in case of metal tug rims, 
into short pieces of pipe. 

Spools are furnished in three ways: 

1— Angle Iron Spools bolted directly to shaft in permanent position. 

2— Channel Iron Spools secured to shaft by steel bands adjustable 

as to position but secured by grip fastening. 

3— Wood Block Spools adjustable as to position and held onto shaft 

by long bolts. 

Brake band used with these wheels is the standard 9" 
steel brake band with pipe lever and bent rod staple. It 
is fastened to a lug securely bolted to the channel joist 
next to bull wheel post brace and the staple is fastened to 
wood floor either with or without blocks. 

In addition to regular sizes, bull wheels are made with 
special-size shafts, single, double or triple tug and with 
double brake wheel for heavy drilling service. 

The all-steel bull wheel with metal tug rim is now 
the simplest, most efficient and most economical wheel on 
the market. It is light, simple to erect and practically 
indestructible.

BULL WHEELS 


ANGLE SPOOL ARM 

Made of 3" x 3" x angles, field-bolted to 
gusset plates shop-riveted to pipe shaft and thus 
fixed in position. Cable is protected against 

_ abrasion by 2 " x 3" 

^ wood strips field 
bolted to angles. 

This type of spool arm 
is chiefly suited to manila 
rope and shallow drilling 
service. 



CHANNEL SPOOL ARM 

Made of 6" channels, 
shop-riveted to bent steel 
bars. Adjustable length¬ 
wise on shaft and secured 
in place by friction 
of bars on pipe. 

Edges rounded to 
avoid abrasion of cable. 


Channel 
spool arms 
may be used 
with wire or 
manila cable 
in ordinary 
work. 



WOOD SPOOL ARM 

Made of 6" thick wood 
blocks. Adjustable lengthwise 
on shaft but secured in place 
by bolt tension and friction. 
Recommended for deep well 
service. 


Fig. 32. Details op Bull Wheel Spool Ahms 

Orders for steel bull wheels must specify kind of spool arms desired 
Angle spool arms have been found satisfactory in Western Penn¬ 
sylvania and like territory practice. Other types are more suitable 
for heavier service.

WALKING BEAMS 


WALKING BEAMS : Walking beams made by Carnegie 
Steel Company are the nearest possible equivalent in steel 
to regular wooden walking beams as regards shape, use of 
standard rig irons, etc. They are slotted to receive temper 
screws and take standard-size stirrups. Temper screw 
bearing is a wooden bearing attached to beam in the shop, 
whereas pitman bearing is a cast iron babbitted bearing 
or a wooden bearing, at purchaser’s option. 

All walking beams are built with bent-pipe cable 
protectors and drilled for attachment of counterweight 
pulleys. Eearrs are of box type with double webs, except 
beams W-5 and W-6 which are built for pumping service. 
Webs are stiffened by stiffener angles over saddles and at 
temper screw and pitman ends. 

Owing to the materials of which they are made and 
the method of their manufacture, steel walking beams are 
stiffer than wooden beams of the same theoretical strength. 

spring of the wooden beam. 
This means they are actually 
stronger than their correspond¬ 
ing theoretical wooden equiva¬ 
lent. To secure additional 
spring in the beam, the pitman 
bearings may be removed and 
replaced by the pitman spring 
box made by the Oil Well 
Supply Company for use on 
both steel and. wooden beams. 
Note, however, that use of this 
box means increased length in 
pitman stirrup, and in pitman 
end of beam. 

Walking beams for Standard and light California 
drilling rigs take regular center irons and 2" stirrups. 
Heavy center irons and 2}/2" stirrups should be used on 
heavy California and California Combination rigs. 


They do not have the

CARNEGIE STEEL COMPANY 


Walking beams have been furnished with revolving 
center irons for use on Standard Combination and California 
Combination rigs and are advantageous when frequent 
shifts are made from rotary to cable tools or vice versa, 
as their use permits the lateral displacement of the beam. 
Revolving center irons are made in regular weights for 
rigs with 43/^" or 5" band wheel shafts and heavy weights 
for 6" shafts or heavier. 



Fig. 42. Walking Beam Center Mounting 


Walking beams are usually mounted on standard 
center irons and saddles. Makers, however, are prepared 
to furnish steel walking beams hung directly on the samson 
post without use of center irons. In this case the samson 
post is extended up to center of beam, which is held in its 
bearings by a pin securely fastened to the beam itself. 
This method is advantageous for pumping use.

End loads are computed at 12,000 pounds per square inch fiber 
stress for steel. Wood equivalents are computed at 1,100 pounds fiber 
stress for good, clear, well seasoned white oak. 

All these beams are 24'-0" center to center of pitman and stirrup 
bearings, or 24'-9" over all, except W 7, which is 14'-0" center of temper 
screw bearing to center of saddle and 12'-0" from center of saddle to 
center of pitman bearing and 26'-9" over all. W 7 is used on machinery 
supports which go with 24-foot base derricks. 

Beams with pitman spring box are 6" longer on pitman ends. 
Special-length beams built tc purchaser’s specifications.

MACHINERY SUPPORTS : General working dimen¬ 
sions of machinery supports, belt house, engine house and 
derrick are shown in Fig. 47 and conform to length of 
band wheel shafts and sand reels in ordinary use. Work¬ 
ing line of sand reel is on working line of derrick which 
throws sand reel on walk side as is customary in California 
practice, though machinery supports have been furnished 
for sand reels set on outer side of band wheel. The 
straight line arrangement has proven itself satisfactory, 
and can be manufactured at a less expense with greater 
simplicity in detail. Machinery supports are not carried 
in stock but can be made on short notice.

Sills: Main sills are steel channels framed to derrick; 
at samson post, samson post brace and front jack post 
brace these rest on I-beam cross tie sub-sills; at jack post, 
knuckle and tail post, sub-sills are made of double chan¬ 
nels, between which jack post and knuckle post pass. 
The bearing surface is wide, and distribution of loads on 
mud sills or concrete a maximum. 

Braces to jack posts, knuckle post, tail post, samson 
post, etc., are made of heavy steel angles with gusset 
plate connections and with ample bolts. 

Samson Post : Samson post is made of two channels 
latticed and braced by angle braces to derrick. The chan¬ 
nels pass down to sub-sills between main sills and are 
fastened to both sets of sills. They are also braced to 
main sills and to inner jack post by angle braces. Top of 
samson post is likewise braced to derrick by angle braces, 
which form with the derrick girt a horizontal triangular 
truss, making the structure at that point rigid and secure. 
The headache post made of two channels back to back 
with proper separators carries a beveled wooden block on 
its top and is securely bolted to front samson post brace and 
steadied in position by a brace from top of samson post. 

Jack Posts : Outer jack post is a short latticed channel 
column rigidly braced between the channels of the sub-sill 
and secured to main sill by bolts, in addition to which it 
is braced to the sub-and main sills by angle braces. The 
top of this post carried a closed babbitted bearing 11" 
long, with oil cups, etc., as used on wooden rigs. 

Inner jack post is likewise a latticed channel column 
secured by bolts to main sill and braced by an angle brace 
to main sills and samson post. Bearings for inner jack 
post are special. They are 14%" long, closed and babbitted 
and capped by a 2" steel plate which is secured by hold¬ 
down bolts thick which extend from top of bearing 
box plate to underneath side of a heavy steel plate at the

bottom of jack post sub-sill. Jack post bearings are thus 
strengthened by the full weight of the structure. 

Knuckle Post : Knuckle post is made of a single 15" 
channel framed at end of knuckle post sub-sill so as to bring 
sand reel on working line of derrick; is connected to main 
sill by a horizontal plate and braced by angle braces. 

Tail Post : Tail post is in two parts, both of which are 
channels. The bottom portion is framed rigidly to knuckle 
post sub-sill and carries a 2" steel cotter pin on which 
lower portion of swing lever rests. The swing lever por¬ 
tion is a long channel with a tapered end carrying outer 
bearing of sand reel and pivoted on the 2" cotter pin. 
It is connected to brake lever by a 5" channel reach. 

Bearings for sand reel in the top of knuckle post and 
in tail post are made adjustable to permit movement of 
sand reel 2" each way in a horizontal line and to permit 
the use of different-size sand reels without change in 
bracing or general arrangement of machinery supports. 
Lateral displacement of sand reel is prevented by a 
protection strip bolted to outer side of tail post. 

Back Brake : Back brake is made of two angles pivoted 
to sand reel sub-sill and punched at their upper end to 
receive a wooden block. They are connected to inner and 
outer jack posts by tie rods with extra long threads to 
permit adjustment. 

SAND REELS : Sand reel ordinarily used on drilling 
rig is the California double-drum iron sand reel with 38" 
pulleys, 36" flanges and 4" shaft 8'-6" long. Heavy 
drilling rigs with 11' band wheel take 42" sand reel pulleys 
and 40" flanges. 

While sand reel is regular California double-drum sand 
reel, any kind of straight reel with proper length and diam¬ 
eter of shaft and with drum on the walk side may be used. 

Where makers do not furnish sand reels or band wheels on 
steel rigs, orders must specify size of band wheel shaft, make and 
size of sand reel by diameter of pulleys and flanges and by 
diameter and length of shaft.

BAND WHEELS 


BAND WHEELS : General construction of band wheels 
is shown on pages 57 and 59. All wheels are made with 
rolled steel or cast iron flanges, channel spokes, plate rims 
and standard wood face cants. Wheels are double tug 
niade with standard wood grooved tug cants or with 
rolled steel tug rims in three sizes: 

1. Deep Well Size, ll'-O" diameter, 12" face. 


Weight with wooden tug rim. 3,200 lbs. 

Weight with rolled steel tug rim. 3,000 lbs. 

2. Standard Size, lO'-O" diameter, 12" face. 

Weight with wooden tug rim. 3,000 lbs. 

Weight with robed steel tug rim. 2,850 lbs. 

3. Pumping Size, 9'-0" diameter, 10" face. 

Weight with wooden tug rim. 2,500 lbs. 

Weight with rolled steel tug rim. 2,400 Ujs. 

9-foot wheels are made for 4", ^}/2" or 5" shafts. 


lU-and 11-foot wheels for 5" or b" shafts. 

Experience indicates that a 10-foot band wheel in a 
steel drilling rig will do as effective work as an 11-foot 
band wheel in a wooden rig. 

Orders for band wheels sold separate from shafts must specify 
diameter and make of shafts on which wheels are to be used. 

PRESSED STEEL TUG RIMS FOR WOOD WHEELS : So 

satisfactory has been the use of steel tug rims on steel 
bull and band wheels, Carnegie Steel Company offers the 
same tug rim for use on wooden band wheels. It is made 
in two sizes, both double tug: 

1. Driller Size, 7'-0" diameter, weight complete with channel 

brackets and 16 long bolts, 450 lbs. 

2. Pumper Size, 6'-6" diameter, weight complete with channel 

brackets and 16 long bolts, 400 lbs. 

This metal tug rim wall transmit as much or more 
I)ower without slipping as the standard grooved cants, will 
last indefinitely and can be readily removed from a worn- 
out band Avheel and attached to a new one.

ENGINE BLOCKS 


ENGINE BLOCKS : Steel drilling rigs may take wooden 
engine blocks cut in the field, but Carnegie Steel Company 
makes an all-steel engine block, as shown below, for use 
with standard makes of engines. Top flanges of beams 
are punched to receive cast iron bed plates. 

With house framing Carnegie Steel Company furnishes 
an engine bumper block which frames between engine block 
and knuckle post sill and is placed over first house framing 
sub-sill back of knuckle post sill. Where machinery sup¬ 
ports are ordered without house framing, customers should 
' purchase this sub-sill for proper junction of the two parts 
of bumper, or else purchase a short sill to be used with 
bumper block and to be rejected if complete house framing 
is purchased later. 

Detail shows standard-size steel engine block for engines 
. 10 X 12, up to 12 X 12, either Oil Well or Ajax. Heavier 
blocks are built for 14 x 14 Oil Well or Ajax engines. 



Fio. 5.3. Detail of All-Steel Engine Block 

Orders for engine blocks must specify size and make of 
engines with which they are to be used.

CARNEGIE STEEL COMPANY 


HOUSE FRAMING : House framing is made of light 
steel angles and channels. It is arranged to cover black¬ 
smith shop, })iill wheel, derrick roof, belt house and engine 
house. It is punched to receive wooden nailing strips for 
the attachment of corrugated sheets Avhich are held in 
place by roofing nails so as to be readily removal)le when 
drilling operations are completed and the rig is to be 
removed to a new location. 

Corrugated steel used with steel drilling rigs is 26 
gage. Sheets are cut to proper length and makers furnish 
complete diagrams for its erection. Corrugated steel is 
21 wide with a corrugation and a half side lap and 6" 
end lap where spliced. If erected in accordance with 
diagrams, no further cutting at location should be necessary 
except to clear braces. 

Galvanized corrugated steel is preferable for house 
framing. Keystone copper bearing sheets are also recom¬ 
mended and are somewhat cheaper. Under present con¬ 
ditions in the corrugated steel trade, the weights given in 
the specifications for drilling rigs which follow are based 
on the use of painted sheets.

FIELD BOLTS : Erection diagram furnished by makers 
for any particular rig or derrick shows the necessary field 
bolts and their location in detail. As a convenience to

CARNEGIE STEEL COMPANY 


operators, the above lists show field bolts for standard 
derricks and drilling rigs which, while not absolutely right 
in all cases, may be used as a convenient guide. 

Bolts needed for the attachment of wood to steel are 
shipped by the makers and included in the list of field bolts. 
Makers do not ship nails for the attachment of corrugated 
steel; a standard drilling rig will require about five pounds 
of l}/i" No. 11 gage barbed roofing nails, galvanized nails 
preferred. 

BILL OF LUMBER: When engine and belt houses are 
covered with corrugated steel, very little lumber will be 
needed to complete the rig. The following list should be 
sufficient to make floors, nailing strips for corrugated steel, 
etc., but does not include any material for the walk, which 
varies with individual preference and cannot, therefore, 
safely be included but can be readily figured.

MARKING AND SHIPPING 


CAUTION : Derricks and drilling rigs are not made 
foolproof. Structure and mechanism are figured to be of 
equivalent strength to like parts in wood construction, 
and are subject to the same loading conditions. They will, 
therefore, fail under the same loads as the wooden struc¬ 
tures of which they are the steel equivalent. A wood 
derrick will undergo overstrain and spring back if the load 
is not too excessive and is soon removed. A steel structure 
is more rigid; it will spring to some extent under excessive 
load directly applied, but will no more stand eccentric pulls 
or unequal stresses than a wooden structure. 

In pulling casing wdth a Standard derrick, keep crown 
block in center of derrick and keep dead lines divided half on 
each side of crown pulley. Do not pull on one side but see 
that load is equally divided on all four legs. See also that 
load is steadily and gradually applied and that full force of 
engine is not put on suddenly and with a jerk. Slow but sure 
is the safe way with either steel or wood. Most derrick fail¬ 
ures occur from having all the strain on one or two legs. 

Standard steel derricks with 4" x 4" x ^/\q' angles in 
top sections have been successfully used in drilling wells 
4,500 feet deep and in handling heavy lengths of casing, 
but have been pulled in on much shallower wells. If 
purchased in accordance with instructions laid down in 
this pamphlet and in accordance with requirements of 
drilling loads as computed from known strengths of 
material, there need be no fears as to their endurance. 

DETAILS OF MARKING AND SHIPMENT : Pieces are 

marked and bundled at the shop 
so far as possible to avoid any con¬ 
fusion in the field and to simplify 
work of rig-builder. Each piece 
is stamped with its mark with a 
steel stamp in letters 3^" high so 
as to be readily distinguished

and not subject to obliteration in process of handling. 
Large pieces are shipped as units; smaller pieces are 
shipped in bundles strapped together with soft steel bund¬ 
ling bands and in such weights as to be handled by two men. 



Fig. 67. Bundle of Four Angles 

System of marking at the shop is as follows: Derrick 
bases, foundation and machinery support bases are num¬ 
bered from 1 up without letter prefix. House framing 
pieces are numbered from 1 up with letter H prefix, 
Hi, H2, etc. Derrick pieces are numbered by panels with 
prefix, C for leg sections, G for girts, B for braces, with 
suffix letters as needed; BIB designates a brace in the first 
panel, G 3 a girt at top of third panel, this piece being 
needed to complete that section of derrick. Crown block 
beams are numbered CBl,etc.,ladder sections LI, L2, etc. 
Letters R and L after other marks indicate right and left 
hand pieces of same kind. 

All marks are clearly shown on erection diagrams sent 
out by makers with each derrick or rig. These are blue¬ 
printed on linen to stand wear and in addition to marks 
show complete shipping lists for field checking. 

Derricks : Legs of derricks are shipped in single pieces up to 
fourth panel; above this point they are shipped in bundles. Braces 
and girts are shipped bundled; tops in single pieces. Bull wheel 
posts, draw works posts and calf wheel posts are shipped in single 
pieces with bearings bolted thereto. 

Crown Blocks : Crown blocks are shipped in single pieces with 
diaphragms boxed. Crown pulley bearings, sand line pulley bearings 
and casing pulley bearings are shipped bolted to beams. 

Bases : Base members are shipped in single pieces. There are 

no loose members except field bolts. 

* 

Ladders : Ladders are shipped in double-panel sections and 
are bundled together for shipment.

MARKING AND SHIPPING 


Wheels: Unless otherwise specified, bull wheels are shipped 
in four pieces, consisting of two wheels, shaft and spool. Calf wheels 
are shipped in two pieces, shaft one piece and wheel another. Bull 
and calf wheel gudgeons are riveted to the shaft in the shop. Band 
wheels are shipped in one piece, except for keys which go loose in the 
boxes with machinery support bolts and other small fittings. 

Machinery Supports: Machinery supports are shipped in 
separate pieces except for braces, which are bundled wherever possible. 
Band wheel and sand reel bearings are shipped bolted to the posts 
on which they belong. Center irons and stirrups are shipped loose. 
Bearings for walking beams are bolted to beams. Band wheel shaft 
is shipped complete with wrist pin, crank, etc. Sand reels are shipped 
assembled complete. 

Field Bolts: All field bolts are shipped in boxes, packed 
separately and tagged to indicate part of the structure in which they 
are to be used. Ten per cent excess is shipped above the number 
actually required. Drift pins and wrenches are shipped in boxes 
with the bolts. 

CAUTION : Where several [derricks are shipped in one car, 
confusion and trouble in the field may be avoided by attention to 
loading and shop marks. Receipt of material at railway stations 
should be carefully checked against shipping lists to insure that 
pieces have all been received before hauling to location. 

PAINTING : All material is given one good coat of 
paint at the shop before shipment. Surfaces inaccessible 
after assembling are painted before assembling. Paint is 
carefully selected so as to insure as long life as possible for 
the steel. To secure best results it would be desirable to 
paint derricks and drilling rigs at occasional intervals, say, 
everx^ two or three years, dependent upon climatic con¬ 
ditions and amount of handling in the way of removal and 
re-erection. First-class graphite paints are recommended 
for field use. 

FOUNDATIONS : Where derrick is set on side of hill, 
it is usual practice to level up foundations for derrick 
proper and to excavate only far enough into the hill to get 
proper support for two corners of derrick on that side. 
Extension pieces forming a complete foundation are not

connected immovably to the frame sills. It is possible, to 
avoid excavation, to place the channels which form these 
outside pieces on top of sills so as to raise shop floor 
above derrick floor. When so used, the angle posts which 
carry house framing may go down past channel sills 
instead of being connected rigidly thereto as is done 
when the whole structure frames level. 

The use of rolled steel channels, beams and cross tie 
sections for sills of derricks, machinery supports, etc., 
obviates the necessity of much material in the way of mud 
sills. Owing to the small area of these sills, it is necessary 
to see that derrick is supported at the four corners, that 
joists are properly blocked up around well hole and that 
knuckle post, tail post, jack posts, samson post, etc., come 
down to firm, level bearing. Too much attention cannot 
be paid to blocking derrick corners. 

Concrete Footings : Concrete makes the best piers. Its use 
for this purpose is most simple. The forms which are necessary are 
easy to make and may be employed over and over again, especially 
if made of steel Fig. 66 shows suitable forms for this purpose together 
with method of fastening wood floor to derrick. The advantages of 
concrete piers on firm soil are that the derrick will not settle as .is 
the case when wooden foundations are employed, nor are troubles 
experienced from decay or rotting wood. Where derrick site is 
practically level, the forms need not be more than three feet high. 
They should always be of sufficient height to insure that bottom of 
pier rests on good, firm soil. Where one corner is lower than the 
other three, the form may be extended for that corner. Two feet 
square at the top of pier seems to be sufficient for most loads. The 
main thing is to get sufficient area at the base of the pier and that 
area may be figured on the assumption that soil will sustain two tons 
per square foot. 

Placing Concrete in Forms : Holes about six inches each way 
wider than the forms are first dug and a layer of rough stone, three to 
four inches thick, should be placed for proper drainage. These stones 
should be well tamped and smaller gravel carefully placed in the 
interstices and the whole covered with a grouting of mixed cement 
and sand. Forms should be carefully leveled after first course of 
rock is placed and may then be filled with concrete mixed in propor-

tions of one part Portland cement and three parts of Sand and six 
parts of coarse gravel shoveled into the forms and well tamped. 
Larger stones may be used provided care is taken to insure that their 
surfaces are well covered with cement. In dry or warm weather 
rough stones should be moistened before they are mixed with other 
ingredients. 

Forms should be filled with concrete to within or 1" of top 
and then finished flush with a mixture of one part cement and two 
parts of sand so as to make a smooth, level surface for steel base. 
In warm weather concrete will set thoroughly in about three days, 
and forms may then be removed.

A pier two feet square at top, three feet square at bottom and 
three feet high will contain 193^ cubic feet or 16 bushels of concrete. 
If mixed in the proportion of 1:2:6 it willrecpure 2}/^ sacks of cement, 
5 bushels of sand and 15 bushels of gravel." Sand should be sharp 
and free from loam and the gravel clean. Gravel may be of any size, 
but the three ingredients should be so thoroughly mixed and in such 
proportions as to fill all voids. Universal Portland cement made by 
the Universal Portland Cement Company is recommended for con¬ 
crete, where obtainable. 

Method of Mixing Concrete: The simplest way to mix 
concrete is to wheel gravel on to a board or plate platform, about 
9 X 12 feet in width and length, and to spread it out evenly on about 
two-thirds of the surface. Then cover the gravel with sand, also 


90 











































FOUNDATIONS 


spread evenly and cover that with cement. Next, turn over the whole ! 
with shovels two or three times from one end of platform toward the 
other imtil all materials are thoroughly incorporated, after which 
the mixture may be thoroughly wetted with water, preferably applied 
bucket at a time, and thoroughly mixed. The best concrete is mixed 
with such quantities of water that, when placed in forms, water will 
stand on top of surface. Each pier should be finished complete before 
proceeding to the next and should not stand over night partly finished. 1 
If it is necessary to stop work before pier is finished, the surface should j 
be left rough and thoroughly wetted before any additional concrete 
is poured in. 

Mix a sack of cement at a time with six bushels of gravel and 
two or three of sand. A No. 2 farm wheelbarrow holds about two 
bushels. If steel forms are used, lubricate with heavy grease so that 
the concrete will not stick; if wooden forms are used, they may be 
whitewashed. 

ERECTION METHODS : Rig-builders have their indi¬ 
vidual preferences in the execution of their own work. 
Directions which follow are intended as a guide to facilitate 
erection rather than a rule to be slavishly followed. 

For the erection of the derrick no tools are needed 
except wrenches, light hammer and a snatch block and 
lines; the latter may be replaced by cat-line hoist operated 
by a winch. For machinery supports a drift pin may 
be used with advantage to assemble materials before bolt¬ 
ing. Wrenches and drift pins are shipped by makers with 
each derrick or rig and should be contained in bolt boxes. 
Erection may be facilitated by proper hauling, unloading 
at the location and checking against field shipping lists. 
See to it that parts needed first are not at bottom of pile. 
Floor men should examine material before hoisting to see 
if open holes are correct, and material is hoisted when 
required. 

Whether derrick base is set on concrete or the usual 
corner board construction, foundation should be firm. 
Lack of plumbness in the derrick is due, as a rule, to 
unequal settlement of one corner, and without exception 
every derrick failure has been caused by overloading at 


91 











_ CARNEGIE STEEL COMPANY __ 

crown block or by settlement at the corner. A level, 
square base on a solid foundation will secure accuracy of 
assemblement in a complete rig. 

Working Line : Run a chalk line from a stake set back of bull 
wheel side of derrick through center of well hole to a second stake 
set back of engine house. This line is the working line of derrick, 
and all dimensions shown on erection diagrams which are sent with 
every derrick or rig are figured from this line. 

Base; First set sill No. 11 (front base sill) in place at right 
angles to working line, then sill No. 3 (bull wheel sill). These two 
sills have notches cut in their top flanges which should come 
directly under working line. Then set "sills No. 2 and No. 3. 
All these sills should be set with the flanges turned away from the 
well hole. 

Next set the four first-section corner legs in place, bolting up 
loosely. Interior sills should then be placed as shown on erection 
diagram. If smith shop floor sills are included, they are erected 
along with the interior sills as the same bolts connect these sills to 
sill No. 2. One bull wheel post should also be set in place along 
with No. 4R and L as these pieces have bolts in common. Now 
square and level up the entire base, making sure that center notches 
in sills No. 3 and No. 11 are directly under working line. Go 
over all connections and tighten up all bolts. Holes are provided 
in the upper joist to take 2"x4"or2"x6" scantling. These pieces 
should now be put in place, raising them on bolts from outside 
to center to give proper pitch to floor. Floor may then be put 
in place. 

Derrick: With starting legs in place, put in girts and braces. 
These all go outside of legs except lower girts for the ladder and 
walking beam sides which are on inside. If these bind, loosen up 
bolts at bottom of starting legs until first panel girts and beams are 
in place; then tighten up bottom bolts again. Now put in bull 
wheel girts, pulling up in position with line thrown over girt 
above. Holes are provided for both steel and wooden bull wheel 
posts; holes nearest end of girt to go toward shop side. Girt goes 
inside legs. 

Above first panel, sort out on derrick floor all the pieces for each 
panel as G2, C2, B2; G4, C4, B4, etc. Girts marked G2, etc., go at 
top of leg section C2 in every case. All girts and braces go outside 
of leg sections except when marked ‘dnside” on erection diagram. 
All leg sections are alike in each panel, except in rotary derricks. 




ERECTION 


up to top panel. In this panel the legs must be set as shown on dia¬ 
gram, the long gin pole leg being in corner between ladder and walking 
beam side. All girts above third section in each panel are alike 
except on ladder side, pieces on this side having two extra holes for 
ladder connection. All braces in each panel are alike except long 
pieces which form double panel used for handling stems. These 
braces may be put on any side except ladder side, preferably on bull 
wheel side. 

Bolts should be inserted so as to bring nuts inside derrick. If 
put in with nuts outside, nuts may be hard to turn on account of 
wrenches fouling braces. Above first section all bolts in 72 and 80- 
foot derricks are except in ladder comiections where they are 
and in tops where they are 34". Bolts should be sorted on derrick 
floor before sending up to rig-builders. Keep bolts tight after erection 
and well oiled. Rusting may be prevented by dipping bolts in crude 
oil before use. 

Ladders : Ladder sections are in two panel lengths LI, L2, etc., 
starting from bottom. Ladder may be erected any time at option 
of rig-builders. 

Crown Block : Crown block comes in sections with bearings 
and wood bolted on and with diaphragms in boxes with bolts. Hoist 
crown block beams singly from gin pole; put in diaphragms; bolt up 
tight and keep bolts well tightened, particularly bolts connecting 
sand line beams to crown pulley beams on adjustable crown blocks. 

Bull Wheel Posts : Bull wheel, calf wheel and draw works 
posts may be put in at any time. Bearings are bolted to posts, and 
one good method of putting in bull wheels is to put in the post and 
braces on one side and bolt up complete and hoist wheel in position 
by lines over the girt. Insert gudgeon in the bearing on the post 
already in position; slip the other post into its place; erect all braces, 
bolt up and slacken off lines. 

Machinery Supports: Set out working lines as shown on 
diagrams, noting that machinery supports are square with derrick 
base and are not set on a bevel as is the case with some wooden rigs. 
Work to centers. Lay sub-sills in position, placing solid mud sills 
or blocking under jack post and knuckle post sub-sills. These may 
be wood or concrete but must be set in solid ground, as the smoothness 
of operation of the rig depends on steadiness of jack post, especially 
the inner post which should have such a solid bearing as not to yield 
under the heaviest drilling loads. Lay the main sills at least from 
derrick base to knuckle post cross sill. Erect in order, samson 
post and braces, jack posts and braces, knuckle post, tail post 


98

and braces. Use drift pins to bring members into position for easy 
bolting but do not drive them tight enough to distort metal at 
the holes. 

Note that inner jack post bearing is double; uplift is taken by 
\\ 4 :" hold-down bolts which go through top plate and down into steel 
plate at underneath of sub-sills. These hold-down bolts should 
always be kept tightened to bearing so as to insure smoothness of 
operation and prevent pounding of band wheel shaft on bearing. Be 
sure that all keys in band wheel shaft are tightly driven and all bolts 
well tightened before drilling operations are commenced, and keep 
them so. Note that box on knuckle post and tail post is adjustable. 
It should be set with a 38" sand reel pulley in the central position so 
as to move forward as the band wheel rim wears. With a 42" sand 
reel, set outside. 

Knuckle post and swing lever boxes go on outside, collars on 
inside, webs of channels of which post and lever are made coming 
between. Band wheel collar comes on inside of inner jack post box. 

House Framing: After derrick and machinery supports have 
been erected, house framing posts, angles, etc., may be put up at any 
desired point. Study erection diagrams; watch the marks, and go 
ahead. Wood nailing strips can be gotten out and bolted to steel 
before erection. Makers, for convenience sake, drill pieces with more 
holes than are really necessary. Bolts every five or six feet are 
sufficient. Easiest way to put on strips is to cut to length and bore 
the holes in the wood, using the steel as a template. Bolts for this 
work are 3^" in diameter. 

Corrugated Steel: Corrugated steel is cut to length ready for 
erection as quickly as possible. It should be set closely to erection 
diagrams and nailed to wood strips with galvanized roofing nails.

use in the manufacture of derricks and drilling rigs, there 
are many places in the oil and gas fields where steel is 
and can be put to good service.

by Carnegie Steel Company on its shape, plate, bar and rail mills is 
contained in its Shape Book. Many of these are rolled with special 
reference to oil and gas well work. Data on pipe flanges, gear blanks, 
industrial wheels and other circular sections for use in machinery, 
machine shops, crane and yard tracks, etc., are found in Gear Blanks 
and Miscellaneous Circular Sections. Copies of these and other 
publications on the use of structural steel can be obtained from its

qualities of Apollo Sheets with the added advantage of 
a copper steel base which insures the highest possible degree of 
rust resistance and durability. This grade is designated by the 
Keystone design added below the Apollo trade mark.
